"Nous avons trop souvent le socialisme pour les riches et un capitalisme de marché libre et difficile pour les pauvres."
— Martin Luther King Jr.
Simplified Meaning:
In many places, rich people receive lots of help and benefits from the government, while poor people have to manage on their own. For example, big companies might get tax breaks or financial bailouts, which means they pay less in taxes or get money from the government to save their businesses. On the other hand, poor people often work hard but do not get much support, like affordable healthcare or good education. This creates a situation where the wealthy become even richer and the poor struggle to improve their lives. To make things fairer, people can push for policies that provide equal opportunities and support for everyone, not just the rich. This way, society can help everyone succeed, not just a privileged few.
